-- This year, Chinese New Year had the good taste to coincide with my birthday. It's also a Year of the 'Water Dragon', hence some rather cute underwater celebrations. Click on the newslink to see a dragon dance among sharks (= thread title photo). Some other dances below.

Underwater dragon dance to welcome the Water Dragon

Published on Jan 20, 2012

By Trinh Hoang Ly

Muti has been diving for two years, but he has never danced. Not till about three months ago.

The 37-year-old is part of a team that will perform Singapore's first underwater dragon dance on the first two days of Chinese New Year to welcome in the Year of the Water Dragon.

Made especially for the occasion in neon pink, complete with bushy eyebrows, the three-metre dragon twists and turns to traditional drum beats.

Check out this spectacular performance as Underwater World divers became dancers, just for the occasion.

Depends on the filling.

Some are unedible (durian whatever composite)

Some are nice, but a tad heavy (egg yolk)

Some can be delicious (the better lotus/sesame seed ones)

Puff, dragon, smoking, cigarettes.


You're on topic, but "chasing the dragon" didn't involve cigarettes.

Lécher le cul de son bienfaiteur, c'est une coutume de quelles tribus du 16°? ;)

Porte Dauphine s'expliquerait. Mais ça pourrait avoir un côté folle de Chaillot.

J'aime bien les threads de FF qui partent d'un point A (dragons chinois) pour arriver à un point B qui n'a rien à voir (les tribus du 16°). :)
